Quorum Review IRB Launches Improved Expeditable Research Review
Seattle, WA (PRWEB) May 20, 2014 -- Quorum Review IRB, the industry leader in central IRB services, unveils today an improved process for reviewing Minimal Risk Research.
Quorum’s new Expeditable Research Review allows for faster turnaround time of minimal risk protocols: Next day for qualifying minimal risk protocols with no consent forms or recruitment materials, and four days for those with consent forms and/or recruitment materials. The service also features a special discounted pricing.
As Quorum Review CEO Cami Gearhart, JD, explains, this service provides a customized approach to research studies that are designed to involve no greater than minimal risk to study subjects. “Our Expeditable Research Review process has been improved to reflect the different nature of minimal risk protocols. Through our updated internal processes, we are able to provide a more efficient review timeline to our clients.”
The service is of notable interest to researchers hoping to engage in observational registry or data collection studies or those involving minimally invasive procedures.
